Airplane live load!

Category: Bridges

You know, I’ve designed bridges for lots of different loads before (18 wheelers, pedestrians…even a golf cart), but never have I had to design for a jumbo jet. AASHTO has requirements for deflections based on moving loads, I wonder what it would be for this jet? Hopefully this isn’t at a point where the plane touches down and lands…impact on top of that…sheesh!
